Board Member Testimonials
As a member of the AgeGuide Board of Directors, I’ve gained a gut-level understanding of how much remains to be done to solve the challenges and problems of aging in American in these times and the fact that there are not a lot of easy solutions. Working alongside a dedicated group of individuals – Board members and professional staff – to make a difference has been both satisfying and humbling.
– Jack Kreger, Board member and former Board Chair
